 This install applies to "Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy" © 1986 Infocom.

 Requirements:
 -------------
 This install requires WHDLoad to be in the path.
 These programs can be found in the WHDLoad package.
 To install from a different drive than DF0: select installation mode Expert.

 The installed game requires 0.5 MB ChipMem (+0.2 MB for preload)
 It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").

 The game requires an installed A500 Kickstart 1.3 image.
 The kickstart image must be located in the directory "Devs:Kickstarts" and
 must be named "kick34005.A500". The image can be extracted from a A500 with
 tools like 'GrabKick' or similar which can be found on aminet.
 If the image is of wrong version or altered in any way WHDLoad will quit with
 an appropriate message.
 Additionally the file "kick34005.A500.RTB" must be installed in the same
 directory as the kickstart image. It can be found in the archive
 "util/boot/skick346.lha" on aminet.


 Features:
 ---------
 - Full load from HD
 - Manual and solution included
 - RomIcon, 2 NewIcons and 2 OS 3.5 color icons (all created by Irek'72)
 - Source code included as usual
 - Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')

 Classic Infocom adventure here which was very easy to patch.
 Load/save is of course supported, to save your game type "save", to
 load a saved game type "restore".


 Enjoy this classic! Special thanks to Irek for the cool icons!
